Beauty from Ashes: Journeys of Recovery from the Rwandan Genocide

by Callum Henderson (Author)

Synopsis

How could an African country of eight million people be plunged into a chaos of slaughter which left a million dead? And how, after the killing, can widows, orphans, killers and survivors find the heart to recover and rebuild? In this stunning and uplifting account, Dr Callum Henderson combines research and personal experience to answer both questions. Above all he reveals a new spirit at work in Rwanda as some who committed unspeakable deeds are able to repent and survivors are able to forgive.

'A powerful and well researched narrative of the genocide in Rwanda. Though its poignancy paints a graphic picture of the pain; it also takes us to place where, even in the deepest suffering, forgiveness and reconciliation can shine through.' John Glass
